Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mobile communications device with a camera, which can be used, in addition to normal mobile telephone and data communications, to take photographs.
  • a problem with the known devices is that an unprotected lens of a camera integrated into a mobile communications device is susceptible to dirt and scratches or a protected lens is difficult to bring out and return to the storage position.
  • the present invention seeks to provide an ergonomic mobile communications device with a camera with which photographing is easy and wherein the lens of the camera is protected in such a manner that no special measures are required apart from the normal use of the mobile communications device to bring out the lens.
  • a mobile communications device is divided into two roughly equal parts which are slid as far apart as possible before use.
  • Function keys advantageously include at least three and not more than ten keys. Typical function keys include call start and end keys, arrow keys or corresponding browsing keys and memory management keys. Function keys may also include a known multifunction key.
  • the invention pertains to a mobile communications device with a camera, said device comprising a microphone, loudspeaker, display, keypad proper and a camera, and the mobile communications device comprises at least two parts covering each other alternatively completely in the transport position of the camera or partly in the operational position of the camera so that when the parts cover each other in the transport position of the camera the lens of the camera is protected, and in the operational position of the camera the lens of the camera is exposed.
  • an image can be projected through the lens of the camera and the display serves as a viewfinder for the camera by displaying the through the lens projected image to the user of the device and the lens of the camera is placed in the device essentially on a different side than the display.
  • the lens of the camera is brought out from between the parts of the device where it has been well protected from environmental effects such as dust and scratching objects.
  • the mobile communications device can be used for taking photographs preferably by pressing one function key.
  • the display of the mobile communications device serves as a viewfinder when aiming the camera and when the shutter is released, whereafter the image is stored in memory and the picture in the viewfinder is fixed on the display.
  • the mobile communications device is also designed so as to have a shape easy to grip so that when holding the mobile communications device in hand, one would not touch the lens of the camera.
  • Figs. 1 show a frontal view of a mobile communications device which according to an embodiment of the present invention has a camera lens depicted in Fig. 2 in the rear.
  • the mobile communications device comprises two parts, a radio part 1 and a hand part 2 including the keypad proper.
  • Fig. 1A the mobile communications device is open in its operational position wherein the hand part 2 has been slid out from beneath the radio part 1.
  • Fig. 1 B the mobile communications device is closed but can be used e.g. for calls by means of the function keys.
  • the mobile communications device further comprises an internal antenna 3, radio part 4, microphone 5, loudspeaker 6, display 7, function keys 8, battery 10 and charge interface 11, which can be used also when the mobile communications device is closed in the transport position.
  • Fig. 1A shows in dashed lines both the outlines of the parts 3, 4, 10 inside the phone and the function keypad 8.
  • Figs. 2 show a rear view of a mobile communications device according an embodiment of the present invention.
  • the mobile communications device is open in its operational position wherein the lens 13 of the camera according to the invention is exposed and ready to be used for taking photographs. In that state, the radio part 1 and hand part 2 have been slid as far apart as possible.
  • a function key 8 is preferably utilized as a shutter release for the camera.
  • Fig. 2B the mobile communications device is closed in its storage position and cannot be used for taking photographs, but can be used for telephone calls by means of the function keys 8.
  • the location of the camera lens 13 on that side of the mobile communications device which is opposite to the display 7 makes it possible for the user to view the object of the photograph simultaneously both naturally past the mobile communications device and on the display 7.
  • This construction is also advantageous to manufacture as the rear side of the mobile communications device can be manufactured using a single mould and the camera unit can be easily installed on top of a parallel printed circuit board unit in the radio part 1 of the mobile communications device.
  • the lens 13 of the camera is well protected in the location described.
  • the battery 10 of the mobile communications device is located in that part of the mobile communications device which includes the keypad 9 proper in order to place the center of gravity as low as possible to make photographing easier in vertical position.
  • Fig. 3 shows a block diagram of the essential parts of a mobile communications device according to the invention.
  • Speech voiced into a microphone 14 is taken by means of a transmitter 15 to a duplex switch 16. and further to an antenna 17.
  • Speech received by the antenna 17 is taken by means of a receiver 18 to a loudspeaker 19 to be heard. All functions are controlled by a controller 20 connected to a keyboard 23 for providing input.
  • Such input includes e.g. the release of the shutter of the camera 22. Photographs taken with the camera 22 are stored in memory 21 and shown on the display 24.
  • the mobile communications device in photography.
  • the user takes hold of the radio part 1 and hand part 2 and pulls the parts as far apart as possible so that the mobile communications device preferably is activated for dialling or photographing.
  • the mobile communications device is activated for photography using a menu control.
  • photography is activated, the user sees the image of the viewfinder of the camera on the display 7 of the radio part 1 and can aim the camera. The picture is taken by pressing a key 8, 9 on the mobile communications device so that said key in this mode functions as a shutter release button.
  • the function of the key serving as a shutter release preferably depends on the mode of the mobile communications device and said key is located such that it is easily pressed e.g. with a thumb in order to take the picture.
  • a key preferably belongs to the function keys 8 in the mobile communications device described here, but in a device with different proportions it may also be located elsewhere, such as in the keypad 9 proper, where, however, it is easy to use considering the size of the device.
  • the function of the key may be different in call and photo modes but it may also vary within those modes.
  • a key that functions permanently as a shutter release is also possible, but it cannot be used during normal mobile communications.
  • the image in the viewfinder is fixed on the display 7, showing the picture that was taken and stored preferably in the device's own memory, but in principle it is possible to use alternatively or in addition separate additional memory in order to increase the number of pictures that can be stored.
  • Pressing the shutter release button causes the camera to shake slightly, and to reduce blurredness caused by the shake the device waits for a user-selectable period of time after the shutter release button has been pressed before storing the image in memory.
  • Said delay can be menu-selected preferably between 0 to 1 seconds at 200 ms steps.
  • the picture is stored in the memory of the mobile communications device preferably in compressed format to save memory space; one such compression algorithm is the JPEG (Joint Photographers Experts Group) algorithm.
  • a stored image can be further transmitted e.g. to a personal computer (PC) using an infrared or wire link, to an electronic mail system or to another mobile communications device via air interface or to a fax machine, for example.
  • PC personal computer
  • Stored images can be used in the mobile communications device e.g. in a telephone directory with pictures.
  • the radio part 1 and the hand part 2 can be arranged to pivot, whereby in the retracted position the camera lens is concealed and protected from the environment and when the radio part 1 and hand part 2 are flipped opened into the operational position the camera lens is exposed.
